COPING TOOLS
FOR STUDENT STRESS
There are some effective ways for teens to manage their student stress. By accessing
these tools, they may be better equipped to overcome periods of peak stress:
Practice yoga. Getting into the routine of practicing yoga can help teen better manage
their stress levels. Yoga classes may be available at school or the local gym and are also
online for free.
Meet with a school counselor. Sitting down with a school counselor can help the
student in many ways. They can review their academic track and determine if it may be
too challenging for the teen. They can discuss whether they have taken on too many
extracurricular activities.
Get better quality sleep. Making the commitment to getting more sleep means shutting
down the electronics at a certain time, such as 9 pm. This eliminates a major disrupter
of getting quality sleep. When a teen gets 8-9 solid hours of sleep, they will feel sharper
and have more energy during the day.
Use time management apps. Getting organized is half the battle. Teens can access
digital apps that help them better manage their time. Finding a time management
method that works for them is key.
Teens may resist talking about their fears and worries because t
hey want to please their parents and make them proud.
By complaining they may worry that their parents or friends
would think they are weak and can’t handle school demands
as other people can. But bottling up their emotions is just going
to make things worse. If you notice these signs in your teen,
begin a conversation with them. Just ask them how they are doing
and whether they need anything, and let the teen share their feelings.
